Review

About the engine

a bit under powered but reliable, and can take a lot of abuse and negligence, they say timing belts need replacement quite often, i ve had 3 of these cars never replaced one in the 6 years i ve had these cars never snapped one. only problem ive had where with 1 heater out it has trouble starting, and self starters can give some issues.

About running costs

very economical barely ever do anything to it not even a service and it keeps runing
